context.<name>.rc.<parameter> = <value>

in the config file. This allows for example to set a custom
report for each context.

Stores the definition of the context for type <type> with the name <name>. The
type can either be read, write or rc. For details of the read and write types,
please see the task(1) man page. The rc type allows to override any configuration
parameter for the current context, e.g. if the default command for the context
home should be changed to home_report, the following statement could be added:
context.home.rc.default.command=home_report
